In flames the coasts of Boeotia have been surrendered with the fire reaching as far as Corinth.

The coastal zone has now been covered by the fronts of the fire, but also by thick smoke, causing residents to leave their villages. Throughout the night there were flare-ups, even within residential areas, as the Beaufort never stopped feeding the fire.
